Coventry Blaze have retained the services of forward Kim Tallberg, who led the team with 31 goals during the 2022/23 season.

The Swede also racked up 28 assists to end his debut Elite League season with 59 points in 66 games.

Head Coach Danny Stewart was thrilled to have the 31-year-old back at the Skydome. "Stewart said, “Kim is a huge piece from last year that we wanted to get back, and he will be even bigger for us this season. On the ice, off the ice, he is a top professional. He brings energy to our room every day and makes those around him better," he said.

"Kim will be a big part of our offense again, but also guy that plays in hard areas and is tough to play against. We are thrilled to have him back and I know our fans will be as well.”
